A telegram from Krasin dated 13.II (File No. 1466/c)
says (Lloyd George): “If the Soviet Government refuses to
recognise the Cannes resolutions that will threaten the
break-down of the entire conference and will, in any case,
make it easier for Poincare to walk out....”

But the whole British press, judging by our papers, has
made frequent statements to the effect that the invitation
to the Genoa Conference does not require and never has
required the preliminary acceptance of the Cannes terms and
that the contrary opinion held by the French is an
incorrect one.

All the material must be collected to establish precise
and formally indisputable facts.
